#4656: Support 'geojson_text'::geometry
-------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: Algunenano | Owner: Algunenano
Type: enhancement | Status: assigned
Priority: medium | Milestone: PostGIS 3.1.0
Component: postgis | Version: master
Keywords: |
-------------------------+---------------------------
As suggested by Felix Kunde in the mail list, having geometry::json::text
has created the need to be able to do the reverse, that is, parse
automagically a geojson text into a geometry:
{{{
SELECT '{"type":"Point","coordinates":[1,1]}'::geometry
}}}
As long as `{` isn't a valid character in the other formats that we
currently support as input (EWKT, HEXWKB, WKT), adding this piece of magic
should be simple (make LWGEOM_in call lwgeom_from_geojson).
